The Healdsburg Museum has a wonderful and plentiful original
historical photograph collection. There are thousands of photos
related to various subjects, including: agriculture, athletics,
buildings, downtown, people and families, houses, transportation,
Russian River, schools, stores and more! For the past several
years the Museum has been working on a photo preservation project,
in which all of the original photographs in the Museum's collection
are scanned into a computerized database. In addition to the
database itself, a CD-ROM archive and hard copies are being created.
Currently (as of mid-2006) we have scanned approximately 10,000
photographs and estimate that we are approximately 50% complete.
Additional volunteers are always welcome to speed up this effort.
Contact the Curator if you are interested in this activity.
The Museum’s photograph collection is available to the public for
research, educational and professional use. Please see the
Research
Section for details on reproducing and using photographs.
